Search for man missing in Taupō bush continues

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The search for a man missing in Taupō bush will continue on Thursday morning.

Scott McPherson, 22, contacted his family on Tuesday, to tell them he was lost in the bush around Opepe Farm, near State Highway 5, also known as the Napier-Taupō Road.

No-one was heard from him since. McPherson was last seen wearing green camouflage pants, a black jacket and a white Tui hat. The search team met at 7am on Thursday to discuss a plan for the day, a police spokeswoman said.

McPherson is described as 183cm tall, of slim build, with short light brown hair. He has blue eyes and a tattoo on his left shoulder down to his elbow, as well as a scar on his neck. Police are asking anyone who might have seen Scott to get in touch by ringing 111.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
